What does the 'B' mean?
I've seen a watch advertised as reference "126333B" or "126333 (B)".
What does that B refer to?

Is that your guess? I doubt Rolex would use an acronym for an English word to denominate a model.

So, 'B' could very easily be "Black" in this case. |

If I saw that in a listing then I’d really be sure the seller is truly experienced. Or it’s a typo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I think the seller might use it for Bi-metal, as the ref number is of a TT DJ.

On some if the older GMTs, Rolex used a letter to indicate the bezel insert color.
